Variegated string of hearts propagation tips?

#plantfairy @ManyLime has brought me to tears 😭🀍🫢🏽

TMI but bf and I were close to getting kicked out and this 🀏🏽 close to being homeless. One of the worst days so far…

Jennifer sent #plantmail and the timing of it is perfect πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’– she replaced ny variegated string of hearts that died a few days ago, and the person included two extra goodies so she wouldn’t grow alone!! 😭😭

I’m texting you as I post this but omg I can’t thank you and this community ENOUGH 🀍🀍🀍

Can anyone give tips on how to go about propagating the VSOP? 😁

Literally in tears. I don’t know what I do to deserve all of this love 🫢🏽

I think we all realise that people on Greg are empaths, we feel a lot and we give a lot. Sometimes we can only manage a thumbs up, sometimes we can share love and (grow) light in a more physical way. @ManyLime may the care you’ve shown come back to you threefold πŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’š @kscape I so hope that this is a sign of stuff improving for you & your bf. Can’t wait to see those hearts grow long enough to give you a real plant hug!! πŸͺ¬
@kscape string things?πŸ₯ΈπŸ₯ΈπŸ₯Έ
@kscape just lay them on top of the soil… that’s how my mom did mineβ€¦πŸ˜

This makes me so happy πŸ₯ΊπŸ₯°πŸ«ΆπŸ»
You are very welcome my friend. Im so glad they got to you at just the perfect time.
Im glad you got my long distance hug exactly when you needed it and you felt it strongly. πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’šπŸŒ±
Yeah with a cluster that tight, your best bet for the vsop is probably gonna be just lay it on some soil and mist like once or twice a week for a bit (:
Anyone interested the site is Allison Succulents on etsy. She hand wrote the note, sent me a copy with a pic of note and plants for approval!! I expected something typed, not personally written. So im extremely pleased.
The 2 soh I got from her are growing like gang busters!! @KrunchyWrap purchased from her also. She rocks!
#PlantPeopleAreTheBest and @ManyLime and @kscape are no exception!! πŸ’–πŸ’–
@MothGoblin πŸ’šπŸ’šπŸŒ± definitely! With the empath part.
@FirstCanna @WickedValkyrie Thank you both so much for the tip! 🫢🏽πŸͺ΄ appreciate it lots!!
@PlantyPlanter makes me so fricking happy toooo!!! Can’t wait till I’m able to do this for others soon 🫢🏽😁
@AwesomePlants @LatiTish84 both of you are just as AWESOME as @ManyLime πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’– y’all are legit my big #plantsisters 🀍🀍😭
@MothGoblin You said it!🀍🀍🀍 so very thankful for this community and the way it’s evolving. So much love to share πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–
Omg yes! Allison succulents has some of the best quality succulents and fast shipping. Everything I've gotten from her has been some of the healthiest and just liveliest plants I've ever gotten.
Wow, my heart πŸ’œ
WHOLESOME πŸ₯² we love you @kscape
@ManyLime you are so sweet! Thanks for spreading the love πŸ’š
This post right here, this is why I feel like I’ve finally found my tribe. I’m so happy you got this gift and it touched you so deeply and I hope you have better days ahead. Sending lots of positivity your way! Also, how does the plant fairy work on Greg? How do you find out what people are wishing they had and gift it? I’m interested in this topic πŸ‘€ I’m still pretty new so I haven’t learned this part yet πŸ₯°
@Propa sometimes there will be posts made by #greggers that asks others what their #wishlistplant is! Or when @JCPlantProper makes posts for #plantproper, people will comment wishlist plants they want and a few people will try to sneakily send some to people! This is where you can contact Janai if you want to send someone a Plant Proper plant! She can hook you up and keep it a secret 🀣

Sometimes some will take note πŸ‘€ and see who wants what and eventually, the #plantfairy does the magic!! ✨✨

Some connect here through emails and exchange contact info so if you’d like to get to know people better, don’t be afraid to ask! πŸ€πŸ’–πŸ«ΆπŸ½
@KrunchyWrap yay so happy you have good luck with them too!! 😁😁 excited about my babies and hoping these thrive unlike my first VSOH πŸ«£πŸ«£πŸ’–
@hoyahead omg stop it Alex, i love you and appreciate you too!! 🀍🀍🀍
β™₯️
@kscape thanks so much! I have so many plants here that I’m raising, I figure that I can help someone’s wishlist! I would love to help someone’s bad day when I can!
@JCPlantProper thanks so much I will check that out πŸ€— your site does get amazing reviews I’ve been meaning to check it out too! This truely is the BEST community πŸ₯°
❀️❀️❀️ @ManyLime
Dariana, you're so loved and appreciated by this community, definitely by me πŸ₯°πŸ’ž it's is so heart warming to see the love shown by this community. I do hope things turn out ok for you and your bf. Big hugs πŸ€—β€οΈ
This is so beautiful πŸ₯°πŸ’• I hope everything works out for the good! I’m so happy that @ManyLime made you happy you guys are all amazing!!
@FirstCanna @WickedValkyrie @ManyLime does this look good? Made sure the soil is well draining and added a little bit of rooting powder to the stem, hoping it may encourage to root!

Made sure the side that had the most stem exposed is touching the soil, keeping most of the pearls above the soil! 🀞🏽✨🌿

I’m so nervous since I’ve heard horror stories of SOP and I somehow managed to kill my VSOH prop πŸ’€πŸ’€
Looks great!πŸ™ƒπŸ‘ Lemme know if you have any care questions... VSOP tend to be more finicky, but my SOP are all doing great... (:
@Sassylimey Thank you so much Sarah! I appreciate you more thank you know! I look forward to interacting with you everyday πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–
@Vjunc Thank you so much Valeri 🀍🀍 Jennifer is truly AMAZING ✨
@kscape I still have my first soh and honestly it's just now starting to put off new growth. I couldn't figure out what to do for the soil, I could never get it right and to top it off, it was a 6 in long lucious thing that WAS INFESTED WITH MEALY BUGS. It's took soooo long to get rid of them it was unreal and I think it was so stressful and traumatic that it's just now starting to be ok from it. My others ones I've just gotten lucky so far. I try to keep then in the soil theh come in until I can for sure mimic the ingredients. I bet you do great though! Allison's soh/vsoh and sop are sooooooooooo healthy. No blemishes no signs of rot or stress anywhere. The little heart leaves are so thick. J didn't even know they could be that plump! Lol
@kscape my sop are allll struggly right now πŸ™ˆπŸ™ˆπŸ™ˆ so im no help lol. I swear they are great one day and goo the next πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ. 🀞🏽yours do great.
Now the soh are top notch. Both of mines are under a grow light and have grown so much. I think I updated the pics in my oasis. @KrunchyWrap she has the string of watermelon again! Definitely going back for another quick purchase 🀣🀣🀣
@KrunchyWrap Aw noooo I’m so sorry you had to deal with those pesky bugs!!! I had thrips on my Monstera and I restored to keeping him in water while he recuperates 😭
@ManyLime yes omg both the SOH are so plump and freaking cute!!! I’m so nervous about the string of hearts but I’m hoping the rooting powder will help!! 🀞🏽🀞🏽🀞🏽
@ManyLime ohhhh really!? I was just thinking about spending money I don't have on things I don't need BUT NOW I can spend money I don't have on things that are rather essential to survival.
Oh! BTW I just got the CUTEST wee bitty string of turtles the other day. I plant on going back for more bc I DID NOT realize just how darling they were until I got to finally see it in person 😍 I desperately need to update my oasis too... I'm slacking lol
@kscape, I have my sop in bonsai jack with other addictive mixed in it to hold just a wee bitty bit of water and so far they seem pretty happy. My sot are doing great...

..at least I think so... lol
@KrunchyWrap my sot are doing ok right now 🀞🏽🀞🏽🀞🏽 I try to just leave them be 🀣🀣🀣 the minute you start messing with them they start messing up.
@kscape I do hope the sop takes for you! They are so juicy and plump!
